After having so much trouble keeping my wires pieces together to stick my hubby said use plasticine… Omg he is brilliant it is actually so helpful… I was able to glue my wires together without them moving.
I have put it away… taken it out looked at it put it away taken it out worked on it for a few hours…put it away so on etc. Slowly getting there but have given up on the verandah.
Don’t let me put you off…. I’m no where near good at these kits really a newbie.. And of course you will have the satisfaction of doing something from the basics. Also I’ve got stumpy fat fingers and aging eyes so challenging for this oldie.
Great idea. That works really well. I wonder if blutack would work as well?
I can’t see why it shouldn’t.
You did great. They look nice
very smart idea @Carmie , I never thought of that. gluing wire is difficult.
That is an excellent idea. It turned out perfectly.
Great tip! Your wire work turned out wonderful! I have had this kit in my stash for a year…haven’t decided to tackle it yet. Lol
I can’t take all the credit my hubby @neilbrand was the brains.
Thanks I’ll pass on messege to my hubby.
Well done! That’s very smart ![]()
Well done to you and @Neilbrand
I have never heard of plasticine before, is it like clay? I’m happy everything worked out for you. Your wire works looks pretty in the end.
Play doh… it is what children play with to make things
Hello Carmie. Sorry, the yellow thing in there, is that the plasticine or a clay? Can a clay can work on that, do you think?
Yes the yellow blob is plasticine….. I’m not sure clay is as flexible and stable as plasticine but you could try it.
Thank you. Will try it ![]()
What a great out of the box idea
Oh that’s a handy tip!
I think your wirework turned out great yay!
Give yourself a pat on the back for tackling Dora! ![]()
